Hi! my mom recently gave me this beautiful green lacquer music box
that plays "the way we were". not only have i decided to learn the lyrics to that song, but i have decided to start a collection of music boxes.
on another note, i found two pennies from 1983 and 1959!
they were pretty tarnished, so i looked up how to shine pennies and got some pretty good results. first i rubbed the pennies all over with an eraser,
then i used a toothbrush to scrub them with ketchup. then i rinsed off the penny and the brush,and scrubbed the penny in baking soda, mixed with warm water into a thick paste.
rinse it off, and ta dah! this technique is surprisingly fast and very effective.
you can also subsitute your thumb for an eraser in a pinch.
on yet another note, i just cut off the spiderplant i'm going to give to lucy!
i've decided that it'll probably be ready to give to her on the 20th.
that's also when i'll be cutting off delilah, the one i'm keeping for myself.
